IronBox BMW E30 Street Steering Angle Adapters — Approx. 50°

$
120.00
The IronBox BMW E30 Street Steering Angle Adapters are designed to increase the available steering angle and reduce the Ackermann angle without cutting or welding the original front control arms

The adapters install between the original BMW E30 front steering knuckles and OEM control arms, providing approximately 50° of steering angle when used as part of a correctly configured front suspension setup

Installation increases the front track width by approximately 30 mm on each side

Unlike the IronBox E30 EVO version, the Street adapters can be used with standard BMW E30 front control arms without widening or relocating the outer ball joints

The original outer steering tie-rod ends must be shortened by approximately 10 mm at the threaded connection to obtain the required adjustment range

Main features

  • OEM control-arm compatibility — installs without cutting, widening or welding the original BMW E30 front control arms
  • Increased steering angle — provides approximately 50° of steering lock when installed with the correct supporting configuration
  • Reduced Ackermann angle — changes the steering geometry for improved operation at increased drift angles
  • Wider front track — increases track width by approximately 30 mm on each side
  • Original E30 knuckle installation — designed to mount onto BMW E30 front steering knuckles
  • Tapered mounting holes — manufactured for the outer ball joint and steering tie-rod end
  • Left- and right-side adapters — supplied as a complete pair for the front axle
  • Steel construction — designed for the loads generated during drift and performance use
  • Blacknitride finish — provides corrosion resistance without adding a thick coating to the precision mounting surfaces

Compatibility

  • BMW 3 Series E30

Designed for BMW E30 front steering knuckles and OEM front control arms

The original steering tie-rod ends must be shortened by approximately 10 mm at the threaded connection

Compatibility with BMW E30 M3, BMW E30 325iX, E36 steering knuckles and non-standard front suspension conversions must be confirmed before ordering

The Street designation identifies the IronBox product version and does not confirm road approval or compatibility with every wheel and tyre configuration

Required modifications

The original outer steering tie-rod ends must be shortened by approximately 10 mm where they connect to the steering rods

The front control arms do not require cutting, widening or welding

Additional clearance modifications may be required depending on wheel diameter, width, offset, tyre size, ride height and maximum steering angle

Kit includes

  • Left-side steering angle adapter — 1 pc
  • Right-side steering angle adapter — 1 pc
  • Installation hardware

Wheels, tyres, steering components and suspension components are not included

Important installation information

Installation increases the front track width by approximately 60 mm overall

At maximum steering angle, the wheels or tyres may contact the body, inner arches or other suspension components depending on the installed wheel and tyre specifications

The stated steering angle of approximately 50° depends on the complete suspension configuration, steering rack travel, wheel offset, tyre size and available component clearance

The modified tie-rod ends must retain sufficient safe thread engagement after shortening

Check steering, brake-line, wheel, tyre, control-arm and body clearance throughout the complete steering range and suspension travel

A professional wheel alignment and complete inspection of the modified steering geometry are required after installation

Installation and final testing must be carried out by a qualified specialist
